New bus order for First in 2015-16
First confirmed their bus order for 2015-16 last Friday, 29th June. The article on their website is here, with the list of vehicle types near the foot of the page.

This is significant in several ways. It includes E40Ds to MMC spec, and no fewer than 65 Wrightbus Streetdecks!

I have read elsewhere that, of these vehicles, 75 are due for First Glasgow, 31 for First Scotland East and 7 for First Aberdeen.

I expect that the 20 Volvo B5LH-Wrightbus Geminis are for the Leigh Busway.

Mod Edit: Corrected number of StreetDecks
